That's better. Until toner salesmen up and down the country are forced to drive automated cars, it's hardly an OSHA issue.

actually this is one thing where it would be easier to implement in the states. the national highway traffic safety administration has broad authority to mandate physical safety standards of vehicles sold in the us and maintains the federal motor vehicle safety standards. when they say every car sold in the us has to have seatbelts with given specifications, then that's the way it will be. i'm not aware of any similar muscular regulatory body for the EU, versus it being left up to the nations, but i could be wrong. self driving vehicles clearly fall under the NHTSA's jurisdiction, and they could do things like mandate self driving cars conform to the posted speed limit. this is another side effect of widespread self driving car use - a shitload of cars that strictly follow the speed limit and infuriate human drivers lol

I love the idea that it's easy to homogenize in Europe, a place where any rail shipments from Portugal to the Baltics would need to be taken off one train and put on another multiple times because of different rail gauges.

Every time the unintended acceleration thing comes up I feel compelled to ask once again why NO ONE knows that they can just put the transmission in neutral. If the throttle misbehaves and causes the engine to run away just disconnect the engine from the wheels via the transmission. If you're in an emergency situation and the choices are crash at a high rate of speed or disconnect drive to the wheels and let the engine spin itself into shrapnel, "gently caress the engine, I am stopping this bitch!" is the correct answer, every single time.

Neutral is better than turning the engine off because turning off the key locks the steering (I have no idea if it does in a pushbutton start vehicle) and keeping the engine running still gives you power assisted steering.

I think you only get a couple of stops worth of vacuum assist from the brake booster when the throttle is wide open but having steering is a big accident avoidance assist.

I think it's like an array of variacs. You put in 250V and depending on how much you turn the winding connection on the variacs you can get 0 to over 500 volts out.

A Festivus Miracle

I have come to discourse on the profound inequities of the American political system.

I work a wildlands job that requires falling class A and occassionally class B sized trees. A being the smallest,C being the biggest, but sizewise getting an A sized tree felled on might only paralyze you for life, while getting a C felled on you would lead to a closed coffin funeral. Training for these things insures both the swamper is clear about where the tree is falling and the sawyer yells out what he's doing (eg 'First cut!' ).

So of course, my supervisor decides to put a chainsaw in the hands of a guy who has never used one before on Tuesday last week with the directions to only limb and chop already felled trees, so the people who know what they're doing can go fell trees. This is fine til after lunch, when dipshit decides he's going to fell a spike top. Spike tops are trees that, for one reason or another, have a dead barkless crown. What this means is that when they fall, the top end explodes like a fukken hand grenade, throwing shrapnel everywhere. Anyway, dude gets through the second cut, and kicks the wedge in to start falling the tree. His cuts have strategically been placed so this hand grenade falls into a burn pile (sticks and logs piled up for burning later).He kicks the wedge in, fells the tree. He didn't make any of the calls you need to make becquse he didn't want to attract the supers attention, so I look up to see a motherfucking class A coming out of the sky like 10 feet from me. The top ends lands in a burn pile, and throws sharp sticks in every goddamn direction, just missing me and one of my coworkers. I went over, took the chainsaw out of his hands and told(more like screamed in his face) him to let his swamper cut for the rest of the day. :cripes:

And then I went and smoked a cig because holy mother of fucks.
